YSL BEAUTY STANDS FOR SUSTAINABILITY



Natural or man-made, each of our ingredients is rigorously selected both for its beauty, and for your safety. Because today, being ahead of your time – as Yves Saint Laurent always was – goes beyond aesthetics. It is a matter of ethics and sustainable practices.
The Ourika Community Gardens created by YSL BEAUTY, embody the social and environmental commitment of our brand. The botanical collection focuses on conducting experimental research and developing new ingredients. Organic farming practices have been followed for several years, and the gardens began the process of becoming organically certified in 2020. Since 2017, a community of 32 local Berber women was set up to tend the gardens. The aim is to provide the participants with access to entrepreneurial opportunities so that they can become more financially independent.

THE OURIKA COMMUNITY GARDENS



In Morocco, Yves Saint Laurent found the inspiration to create his most emblematic haute couture pieces. Perpetuating this creative heritage, the Ourika Community Gardens, located in the foothill of the Atlas Mountains, provide perfumers with an experimental garden to explore new olfactory territories and keep innovating using green science technologies to reveal nature

YSL will use Headspace, a high-tech process to capture the scent of the various plants of the garden enabling perfumers to recreate synthetically the olfactory components of their scent existing in nature and offer unique blend of ingredients while preserving the flora.
